Several months ago, Google launched Chrome Experiments to feature some of the most innovative uses of JavaScript. Designers and programmers from all over the world are encouraged to submit their own experiments using the latest open standards that include HTML5, Canvas, SVG, and more. At the moment, more than fifty impressive JavaScript experiments have been submitted. The apps are apparently intended to highlight the speed and power of Chrome since they run faster with it than with any other browsers.

Here are some of my favorite Google Chrome JavaScript Experiments:(Note: I have also tested these apps on Firefox version 3.5.2 and they all run well.)

Amiga Workbench Emulator by Christophe Résigné

Author's Note:

It's a full javascript (~3000 lines of code) remake of the classic Amiga's operating system "Workbench 1.3".

My experiment was to try and create a complete, beautiful and fun to play collection of Solitaire games with JavaScript.

World of Solitaire has over 40 Solitaire games in beautiful full screen glory. It has all the features you'd expect from a top of the line Solitaire program. Statistics, leaderboards, undo, multiple decks, customizable backgrounds, animation and more.

...it's a musical playtoy that looks like abstract pong. My hope is that i will be able to port enough of it to Javascript, and then use a bit of Flash to manage the sound. The result will be a limited version of BallDroppings that works in the browser. I might also provide instructions on how to begin interacting.
